Sadly, Pat DiNizio, the lead singer for The Smithereens, passed away on December 12th. I missed this and am just seeing it now 
It has me bummed out as I am a huge Smithereens fan. They were a huge influence on my guitar playing and song writing. Here's a link to the story in Rolling Stone https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/pat-dinizio-smithereens-singer-dead-at-62-w513988
